            Bug ID: 466577
           Summary: Feature request: Ability to enter ssh key passphrase
                    when doing a "git push" from Kate's Project plugin
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kate
           Version: 22.12.2
          Platform: macOS (DMG)
                OS: macOS
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kwrite-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: codestuff at catsanddags.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
***
When doing a "git push" from Kate's Project plugin, the push will fail if the
ssh key associated with the remote repository requires an ssh key passphrase.
Adding the ability to prompt for the key passphrase would improve the usability
of the Project plugin for some users.
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up a local git repository, configured to push to a remote repository
using an ssh key. When creating the ssh key, set a key passphrase.
2. Attempt to push committed changes to the remote repository using the "git
push" icon in the Kate Project plugin

OBSERVED RESULT

Push fails due to inability to authenticate

EXPECTED RESULT

Prompt to enter the ssh key passphrase
